ATS Email Alerts extended configurations

Hello,
I'm trying to setup email based alerts on my ATS box the only option 
documented is the target email address. Which SMTP and from email etc 
are possible to configure? Also which type of alerts will be triggered 
via email. The official docs have limited info on this.

Thanks

less what to do with the config parameter :)

Yeh that is more of an example than something we would expect to be widely useable. I think the documentation around alarms could be improved :)

If you are sending emails on alerts, the alert script is expected to know how to send the actual email, probably using a local MUA. For example,
